Autorenporträt
H.G. Wells, born Herbert George Wells on September 21, 1866, in Kent, England, was a prolific writer and is often referred to as the 'father of science fiction.' His early education was interrupted by financial hardships, leading him to apprenticeships that he eventually abandoned for teaching and earning a degree from the Normal School of Science in London. Wells is most famous for his science fiction novels, including 'The War of the Worlds,' 'The Time Machine,' and 'The Invisible Man,' which continue to captivate audiences with their imaginative scope and commentary on contemporary society. However, his literary range extends beyond science fiction. 'Joan and Peter - The Story of an Education' (1918) is an ambitious novel that explores the complexities of upbringing and education in the early 20th century, a theme reflecting Wells's advocacy for progressive ideals in both his literary and socio-political pursuits. Wells's writing is characterized by its foresight, social critique, and the seamless merger of the fantastical with the plausible, a testament to his intellect and his enduring literary style. He passed away on August 13, 1946, leaving a legacy as a seminal figure in science fiction and a profound commentator on the human condition.
